The problem with these laws (and many others to be fair) is that "right to work" sounds great at face value. If you don't look past the name/description of the law, why would you be against people's right to work?

If, however, they named these laws what they are, "lose you collective bargaining rights laws", I'm pretty sure lots more people would be against them.

It's the same thing as "pro life" legislation. Who would be against life, right? But call it what it is, "forced birth", and suddenly it sounds a lot less appealing.
